Nine out of ten people read reviews online before making a purchase. Eight out of ten people trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations. Google is the most popular review platform with 6 out of 10 people using it to read reviews. Your response matters – 97% of people who read reviews also read the business’ response. Reviews also impact Google search results. Google trusts the power of word-of-mouth marketing. It factors in the quantity and quality of reviews to evaluate the search position. When you enter a local search term into Google (like “sports physio”), three main factors will affect the ranking of each site displayed: Relevance; Distance; Prominence. Reviews fall into the category of prominence. A sports physio with many highly rated reviews is likely to outrank a closer local competitor if they have fewer, less positive ratings and reviews. With all this in mind we’ve put together some practical resources to help you to encourage customer reviews.
